Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Zach LaVine will miss the rest of the season because of a torn ACL in his left knee. The news was a devastating blow to a young Wolves team that had recently begun to find a groove. The 21-year-old LaVine was having a career season, averaging 18.9 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 37.2 minutes per game. LaVine is shooting 38.7% from three-point range and has worked harder to become a better defender under new Coach Tom Thibodeau. Or Thibodeau could use veteran Brandon Rush as the starting shooting guard.
